Neottia pinetorum (Lindl.) Szlach. (=Listera pinetorum Lindl., L.mucronata Panigrahi and Wood) is a ground orchid found between 2500-3500m altitude in Uttarakhand. It is not a common species, more so because it is difficult to locate due to greenish flowers.

Photographed in Sunderdhunga valley of Bageshwar district Uttarakhand.

I think differ from you a bit. I am not sure if this is Neottia
pinetorum. I will recheck further to confirm.

Thank you Singh Sir, Nidhan Ji, Dinesh Ji, Balkar Ji, Satish Ji for nice words. This is unique orchid and I saw it first time too in my Sunderdhunga tour.
Pankaj Ji expressed that it may be different species, hope he finds time to determine. I understand, he is handling so many posts and queries.

This could be Neottia tenuis.
Best regards

Keys and diagr in Deva and Naithani (1986) indicated it as L.pinetorum (now N.pinetorum). To me L.tenuis seems a smaller plant with narrower leaves than this. 
However, I will, once again, check the specimens.

I have seen N. pinetorum, it has distinct red line on the labellum. Even the margin is not so wavy. But yeah I could be wrong.
